this is kpix5 news. e discovered tonight.. >> hundreds of people get sick after eating chicken produced here in california, what we discovered tonight that makes you wonder how safe is the food we buy? good evening. i'm elizabeth cook. >> i'm ken bastida. it's a salmonella outbreak involving one of the most popular brands of chicken out there. we talked to a bay area man who was just about to dig in. >> the number is right there. >> reporter: ed vanick says he bought foster farms raw chicken today and was about to prepare dinner when he saw our report on kpix5 at 5:00. turns out he bought the very same chicken, had the same serial numbers as the ones making people 6p 6137, p6137a
1:40 am
and p7632. >> why can they put stuff out that has salmonella in it? if they could check it closer, it wouldn't happen. >> reporter: today the us department of agriculture issued a public health alert saying 278 people got sick with strains of salmonella heidelberg in 18 states, predominantly california and that the illnesses are associated with raw chicken products produced by foster farms at three facilities in california. that chicken is still being sold now. we found it on the shelves at a local grocery store tonight. that's because no recall has been issued. >> i don't know why they're not recalling it. >> reporter: uc berkeley professor dr. lee riley specializes in infectious diseases and says yes, cook the chicken long enough to kill bacteria, but it's still the company's responsibility to make sure meat contaminated with salmonella doesn't get out to the public. could be it a problem at the plant?
1:41 am
>> from what we know that the same thing happened back in the spring, same year, this year, maybe there's something going on at the plant. i don't know. >> reporter: foster farms put out a statement saying it regrets people got sick and that they're taking new safety precautions and they're emphasizing you should thoroughly cook your chicken balls it's still on the shelf in the grocery store. -- because it's still on the shelf in the grocery store. >> that's really the question. why no recall? why doesn't the company step in and remove it? >> that's what's key is because the protocol for the government in apparently cases with chicken and salmonella is to leave it up to the company and so far foster farms said people should know how to cook the chicken. cook it all the way through and they have no plan at this point to issue that recall. >> thank you, joe. it took san jose firefighters about 30 minutes to put out a fire caused by illegal wiring used to grow pot. san jose police tell us the man in a home at seventh and st.

1:43 am
million. >> i think there's more than this in the county. what makes me real happy is we have this here and that our investigators did such a good job to take this amount of drugs off the streets. >> reporter: the 1 pound packages of meth were triple wrapped in tupperware containers, foil and ziploc bags, telltale signs it likely came from mexican drug cartels. everything was laying in plain view in the home of this man, 22-year-old jose alonso jimenez- olmos, a fairly high level distributor now on the run from the good guys and the bad guys. >> i'm sure he had someone he buys from if he's not in charge of processing. it's a big hit to somebody. it will be interesting. that's why we'd like to get him in custody. >> reporter: detectives say he better hope the cops find him before the cartel gets to him first. kiet do, kpix5. >> deputies also recovered two loaded guns. one was reported stolen by its owner. we learned late today there probably won't be a b.a.r.t.
